So what can you do but be bored...

GAH thats how i feel at the moment,
To more —>
Ok so here i am sitting in front of my computer with nothing to do because my lecturer for C programming doesnt send out the assignment questions until like 7 o clock darwin time, so i have another 2 hours of doing  nothing, and then when he sends out the assignments its like a flood of textbook questions, Gah god dam…so i stay up until around 12 to get it all done no matter what, because i dont want to be thinking about doing it again later in the week because i have other things i need to be doing.

AND while im trying to do a lot of nudding, my computer failing because it doesnt have a graphics card really fkn helps when im trying to run a cracked version of Blazblue CS, maybe ill go and download the OST,  And when i try run it on my sistser’s computer it fails even more with a runtime error…gawd dam…

Speaking of soundtracks, i’ve decided to leech a pinch of my universities internets to get the Bakemonogatari set,






Just finished the next Episode of Tsubasa Cat as well, it seems that Bakemonogatari is not finished yet, as there are going to be 15 episodes in total, as there are 3 dvd specials or whatever you would like to call em,
Although this set may not be finished off i suppose its quite a decent amount of music to entertain me, hopefully enough for 2 hours…gawd…

Hmm

KABOOM!!!!

…
…
…
need to find other sources of entertainment for a while…listening to

is not going to cut it lol, she has a nice voice though.
Wow although

Is quite good as well with the power of the song, if you are able to understand the meaning.

Ok ill think i run around the place on the interwebs and look up some magic decks for standard and see if any wonderful ideas of mine pop up and then ill make the new combo corner.
You remember these two?

Well whatever

Till next time,
Andrew Chin

Ookami Kakushi 10

Okay. Finally stopped procrastinating and am watching.

The background music playing after Sakaki’s revelation was wonderful. Oh, Kajiura Yuki, I worship your music. When’s the OST coming out?

Um, well, I watched the whole episode without really any strong comments or feelings except that it’s probably going to end in a few episodes, since the ending of this one was so strong.

And for some reason, the preview was cut short. Oh well.

I’m glad that the story’s moving on at last and stopped waffling along at a snail’s pace. Here’s hoping the next ep will be good.

Victory Gundam and the World Masterpiece Theater

Maybe I just wanted an excuse to post this picture.

When I was watching Victory Gundam, something clicked in my mind. Have I seen this stuff before? Not exactly, but it was a big deja vu feeling.

Thanks to an AWO review about the anime classic Nobody’s Boy: Remi (which ironically is not a representative of the World Masterpiece Theater itself), I remembered. Victory Gundam is essentially a WMT show, albeit with robots and war.

I started to connect the dots. Victory is set mostly in Europe, and has very few characters (if any) of Japanese ethnicity. The main character is a kid with a family-oriented goal in mind–to reunite with his missing parents. Cartoonish animation. A wistful, moving score with vaguely Western sensibilities. Kids who routinely manage to beat up adults twice their size. Dogs.

I thought I was stretching things for a bit, but then I watched the OP.

He wouldn't be jumping for joy if he knew what kind of show he was getting into.

The picker-upper song with its uplifting lyrics is totally unrepresentative of the show as a whole. There’s no mistaking it: Victory Gundam is the kind of show I watched as a kid!

I would like to think that the WMT shows that were an ubiquitous part of weekday Filipino TV programming ruled the roost for a reason: they delivered a compelling narrative by putting their child protagonists through hell, until they got better, or in more extreme cases, died. A Little Princess Sarah was a huge phenomenon here, and even my mom watched it faithfully and could remember key plot points in the series. And it works very well; we Filipinos are total suckers for this stuff. (I’ll try to expound on that in the next post.)

Victory Gundam works the same way. Every episode, I was engrossed with the prospect of seeing Usso wade through a quagmire of bad things, because I wanted to see how he’ll pull through. There are very few happy moments, but they are good enough for you to hope for more, and this approach is highly effective. I had been wired for this stuff way before I learned how to feed myself.

Which explains why I love it.

Novo POTF + Sessão Nostalgia

Olá HP’s.. de boa ai? então.. vcs lembram né que eu falei do Poets of the Fall uma vez.. e depois falei do novo álbum deles né? então… eles lançaram \o/ eu ja ouvi.. achei bom.. ja baixei tbm (god save the internet) e se vcs quiserem ouvir vcs podem entrar NESSE SITE para ouvir o album inteiro.. mas só vai estar disponivel de graça até o dia 23 de março.. quarta.. acho

tá.. agora sobre o post.. euestava conversando com a karen.. e nao sabia sobre o que postar aqui, dai ela falou pra eu falar dos meus desenhos favoritos de infância… como eu achei o assunto extremamente genial, decidi falar disso.. entao vamos la

um desenho que vai fazer parte da minha vida FOREVER é Tom & Jerry… sério, nao tem desenho mais clássico que Tom & Jerry.. violencia animada dos anos 50 é o que há.. SIM! tom e jerry existem desde os anos 50.. mas só viraram uma série regular nos anos 70.. mas mesmo assim, nao deixa de ser um clássico.. todos conhecem o gato cinza que persegue o rato marrom… Pra vcs que como eu cresceram assistindo tom e jerry,  vai ai um dos episódios que eu mais gostava… esse nao tem tanta violencia animada.. mas ainda é sim, é clássico…

Outro desenho que eu tbm achava incrivelmente bom e divertido era O Gato Felix… ele tirava tudo da bolsa mágica dele… era tao legal.. ele tirava umas coisas que nem cabiam la xD.. sem relaçao ao post, gato felix de hoje é o jack bauer… ele tbm tem uma bolsa que tem tudo dentro…. mas elas cabem la.. =P.. ta, voltando assistam ai um episódio que eu achei, e que achei legal

é claro que nesta lista nao podia faltar Dragon Ball.. todo mundo gosta ou gostava ou gostou de dragon ball… os que nao gostam são filhos daquelas maes que acham que dragon ball é coisa do capeta e nao pode assistir, por que pode fazer uma lavagem cerebral e te levar para o lado negro da força… Dragon Ball é até hoje o melhor anime que ja foi lançado.. essas  coisas novas ai que nem death note.. bleach.. naruto.. fullmetal alchemist e o caralho.. nao é nada comparado a Dragon Ball NADA.. tanto que eu nem escrevi com a inicial maiuscula =P … Se voces gostavam da parte Z da série, vcs podem querer assistir Dragon Ball Kai, que é uma versao melhorada dos episódios.. com dublagem original.. nao sei se passa no brasil, mas sei que tem pra baixar…se voce viveu em marte nos ultimos tempos e nao sabe o que é Dragon Ball, ou simplesmente gosta das aberturas, aqui vai elas… (aberturas… nao episódios.. cada episódio tem 20min.. nao rola por aqui)

Também assistia pokémon, e digimon.. gostava bastante dos dois, e sempre quis ver o agumon e o pikachu juntos, mas achoque preferia pokemon =P seria muito divertido.. lembro que quando eu assisti o filme do pokémon que tem o mew two, e os clones do mal dos pokemons.. dai tem uma hora que o ash “morre” e o pikachu vai la e ressucita ele.. sério.. eu devia ter uns 5 anos.. e vou ter que admitir que quando eu vi essa cena eu chorei =P mas ai quando o pikachu ressucitou o ash eu pulei que nem um retardado… E EU TINHA UMA POKEBOLA *-* ta.. a abertura da primeira temporada, que eu considero a melhor.. e depois as evoluçoes do agumon e gabumon até o omnimon, por que a musiquinha é épica e legal

bem.. acho que era isso… nao tem nada a mais que eu lembre.. e vocês? qual era os desenhos de infancia de vocês?  comentem.. e divulguem xD

Yum.. new products taste great! Also, birthday blues.

I finally remembered to blog! Yay!

Lately I have been living the life of a hikikomori – refusing to leave my apartment and spending the day doing dorky things like watching marathons of tv series (Heroes, Sex and the City etc) and anime, and reading a ton of manga and fanfiction.

I’ve been experimenting with cooking too. I made Bread and Butter Pudding, without an oven and Marmite Shrimp Pilaf. And pancakes without milk..
I’ve just been shopping though to stock up on essentials, and found a load of the frozen stuff I avoided because it said it needs to be cooked in a microwave. So I though, “Screw that!” and bought them anyway. For 100yen each they are cheap enough for me to experiment with. I figure forzen pizza might cook well under the grill… and I can probably steam cook the gyoza and takoyaki. I will not let my lack of an oven or microwave mean I cannot have nice frozen meals! I got some cool recipies online for baking cakes without an oven. Going to give that a go

Having just been shopping, I came back with some stuff I maybe should not have bothered with, but because they are new products I bought them anyway.  First new thing I bought was a lovely juice drink – “Sakuranbo & Raichi” which in English is cherry and lychee. It is soo nice ~ I’d imagine it is healthier than drinking cola, but that said drinking pee is healthier than drinking cola (ewww!)

I also bought a KitKat bar (one that looks like a smaller, thinner KitKat Chunky but costs twice as much.) It is white chocolate covered and banana flavoured. I don’t even like the taste of banana much yet I still got it. Because it is new… it was nice. Not as good as the plain KitKat Chunkys from the UK, but it made me feel better.

Having been shopping I feel I have eaten so much in the past hour since returning, than I have all week. Due to dislike of cooking and washing up I have been avoiding meals – having 2 a day usually, occasionally 3 if I get up before midday, but none very big and no snacking between meals. So to get in and have a massive selection of food means my eyes were bigger than my belly. But I resisted and just made a meal out of a bit of pizza bread I bought from 7-11, along with a cheese bun, the aforementioned KitKat Banana Bar, and my lovely Cherry-Lychee drink. And I struggled to finish that for some reason. I guess my stomach has shrunk. So no more food for me til tomorrow.

Though I may have a nice mug of Horlicks tonight, since my grandparents kindly sent me a load along with my birthday present, Easter chocolate and birthday card.

Oh yes! It is my birthday at the end of the month. I have no plans though since most of my friends are busy/don’t really like me/ are on holiday. Also, I have no idea how to organise anything over here. I don’t know good restaurants for going out for a meal, I am not confident enough in Japanese to go book a table, and also I do very much doubt anyone would want to come along anyway. I’ve not exactly been Miss Popular since I got here and any friends I make I seem to alienate with my constant homesick whining.

So perhaps a normal day of watching anime/reading manga etc is on the cards.

Pretty sucky way to spend your 21st birthday though, right?
